The EP Greenhouse Gearbox is a compact and lightweight reduction gearbox with a limit switch system that is suitable for assembly of a locally available electric engine. The Gearbox can be used in manually-controlled or climate-managed ventilation and display systems in greenhouses. The quick and easy-to-installEP Gearbox can be rainproof and windproof. The Gearbox has a high protection course (IP65) and can be utilized within an ambient temperature of 0-60 °C.

The low-noise Gearbox for Greenhouse has a gearwheel transmission and a worm wheel transmission, which are integrated within an aluminium precision housing. The self-braking worm wheel transmission ensures that the drive shaft is usually locked when the reduction gearbox is not running. The fully sealed reduction gearbox comes with an expansion chamber with a diaphragm to keep the gear oil at a low pressure under all situations, even at high temperature ranges. Thanks to the use of an expansion chamber, the Gearbox can be Gear motors for Greenhouse installed in any position. There are no limitations, since there is no need for a bleed plug. The sealed reduction gearbox keeps the apparatus essential oil of the Gearbox in optimum condition for its entire operating life time. The Gearbox is ideal for discontinuous use, operating class s3-30%, with a maximum activation period of 25 minutes.

THE APPARATUS box reduction gearbox has an FT85 motor assembly flange, to which a suitable IEC standard motor can certainly be installed (EN 50347).

The Gear box has a rotating limit switch system with operating switches and circuit breakers (NC contacts) for turning off by the end positions. The limit switch system is installed in an integrated chamber and is certainly enclosed by an impact-resistant plastic material cover. The limit switch system is obtainable and easy to adjust. The limit switch system’s maximum switching range is 40 or 64 revolutions of the drive shaft. The cabling is linked in spring-clip connections. The Gearbox comes with an IP68 M16 x 1.5 cable gland (5-9 mm cable) for the cable feed-through.

The Gearbox for greenhouse comes with 16 teeth 5/8”x3/8” sprockets, keys and fasteners. The accompanying chain couplings and assembly plates are available as accessories.

Optimum drive torque of 150 Nm or 450 Nm.
